In a Deep Bottomed Pot, Heat Water till it Boils

Drain the Pasta & Give Pasta a Proper Shape before it starts sticking together

In the Same Pot, Add Oil, Garlic, Onions & Cook till Golden

The Tip for Non Sticky Pasta is to Rapidly Boil it in 'Hot Bubbling Water' that stops the Pasta from Sticking Together as the Oil won’t Stop it from Sticking
